Grasmere Lodge Hotel: General
infoMap |
Address: |
State Highway 73, Canterbury, NZ. |
| Property description: |
High in the Southern Alps, grand pastoral stations straddle rugged ranges. Most dramatic is historic Grasmere Lodge where 600 hectares of Grasmere Station lie between bush clad slopes. The stone homestead is the original, built in 1858 and subsequently extended. Now 12 individually-decorated suites accommodate up to 24 guests in utmost comfort. Whether relaxing in the conservatory or having a drink by the fire in the library or large lounge, Grasmere Lodge is a glorious high country retreat. This was the setting in which a previous owner, David MacLeod, wrote the books that made Grasmere famous. In the dining room, you will discover exceptional cuisine and a wine list to match. Gin-clear streams and lakes challenge the fly-fisherman while deer and wild boar roam the native beech forest. This kingdom in the hills provides a holiday without equal. |
